A BILLION LIVES UPDATE

October 26th!
After successful premieres and awards around the world, we are excited to announce that we’re finally able to bring A Billion Lives to theaters on October 26th.

Now it’s up to you!

1) Watch & share the new trailer on Facebook
2) Watch the new trailer on YouTube & share on Twitter

Let’s see how fast we can get it to a million views!

So what’s the plan with theaters and October 26th?

Because this is an independent film (not associated with Warner Brothers, Universal, etc.) and we are critical of the #2 advertiser on TV (Big Pharma), we had to take matters into our own hands.

We’ve booked the famous Hollywood Cinerama Theatre on October 26th for the Hollywood Premiere and global launch party. We haven’t funded the required PR yet through after-party sponsorships, so please respond to this email if you’re interested in supporting our efforts in any way (and attending the premiere).

This will be a private event for celebrities, friends of the event (mentioned above), and media. 

The famous Cinerama Dome has hosted world premieres of movies such as Lord of the Rings, Men in Black, Dumb & Dumber, Pitch Perfect, Bad Boys & more.

Because of the success of our North American Premiere (1400 attendees), we were able to negotiate a deal with amazing theaters in New York City and LA to show the movie 56 times on opening week after the Hollywood Premiere!

New York City: Cinepolis (Chelsea)
Opens October 28th
Los Angeles: Laemmle Music Hall (Beverly Hills)
Opens October 28th

Once we put together a more impressive budget for our our Hollywood Premiere (think celebrities & media), we’ll have more news on the US & Canada. 

Because of your interest in the movie, the awards, and these powerful premieres, we were recently approached by an innovative distribution company, Demand.Film, to bring the truth to theaters around the world. This could be big!

Demand.Film and A Billion Lives are featured in Forbes today.

Our partnership with them will initially begin with the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. However, they are constantly looking to see what other countries make strategic sense. There is talk of Germany, Austria, Ireland, France, and others. The US & Canada will be with a different company once we fully fund the Hollywood Premiere. 

The innovative approach they’ve developed allows us to bring A Billion Lives to most cities where 100 people are willing to buy tickets. As a way to say thank you for all the support, we’ll be giving 5% of ticket sales back to the organizers of each screening to support the advocacy group of their choice.

Click on the countries below to learn more and sign up to bring it to your local theater:

For our friends outside these countries interested in helping organize a screening of A Billion Lives in their city, please sign up here.

We’ll keep the rest of the group updated via these email updates.

Quick summary:
  1. Blast the trailer out to the world!
  2. Plan on attending A Billion Lives on October 26th
  3. If you’re in the UK, Australia, or New Zealand,sign up now to organize a screening.
  4. If you’re in other countries (US, Canada, Ireland, Germany, Austria & France especially), please standby and sign up here.
More info is coming once we get our Hollywood global launch funded. That’s all I can say for now.
Talk soon,
 
– Aaron Biebert & the team
